Why Twitter? I can play with halfwits right here!

Last time I checked, 'being held electorally hostage' was not in the activist playbook, but I suppose Americans do things weird.
April 27, 2020 at 16:18
No I believe I'll stick with "go yourself ".

It really comes down to this: those who say that not voting for Biden are voting for Trump miss the fact that it was very policies and politics champi...

No claim of racism today? You must be feeling tired.
April 27, 2020 at 15:55
Acknowledging your inability to say anything of relevance does not make it any better. It's just putting a lampshade over it.
April 27, 2020 at 15:52
Wow four paragraphs and not a thing to say about Biden but about everything but. It's almost like it's all irrelevant :chin:
April 27, 2020 at 15:49
Oh you don't know? Maybe you should ask Joe Biden, who was so worried about his conduct that he issued a half-hearted apology to Hill which to this da...

Also, I have no doubt that you cannot make sense of a great deal, but perhaps if you take your morning vitamins you may just be able to get through a ...
April 27, 2020 at 14:47
Thanks for providing sources on some of what I listed, all of which simply repeat what I said :) I do indeed hope people read about it for themselves,...
April 27, 2020 at 14:43
To be fair, one of the worst things about Trump is precisely his ability to capture - like a black hole - what little political energy people have. He...
April 27, 2020 at 14:36
Yeah I mean how could Biden's mutiple-decade litany of policy shitness ever comapre to a series of irrelavent quotes!
April 27, 2020 at 14:17
Ah yes, the most powerful argument of all - simply not having one.

I'm Australian where we have equally shit representation - a bunch of rabid Christian loons intent of aping American-style governance of punishing the...

Ha, this was great.
April 27, 2020 at 09:14
Yeah, I briefly referenced Damasio's own distinction earlier in the thread somewhere, and though I've read Descartes' Error, it was a loong time ago. ...

Religion is mind bleach, always has been. The real question is how all Churches are not registered as industrial producers of bleach.

Exactly. Literally no one cares about people agreeing or disagreeing with each other.
April 27, 2020 at 04:20
No you're not. You're interested in elaborations on the Heideggarian party line.
April 27, 2020 at 04:18
Go excuse ignorance somewhere else.
April 27, 2020 at 03:46
I mean in which universe has "at least he's not the other guy" seemed like an actual campaign strategy? That's meant to turn people out to vote? Oh ye...

"YoUrE A NaZi SuPpORtEr If YoU DoNt SuPpoRt BiDeN" Fuck off lol.
April 27, 2020 at 02:57
Sure, and you'd have to be a moron not to recognize it's predominant contemporary usage. Or just ignorant, take your pick.
April 27, 2020 at 02:56
I love you too, sweetiepie. Wish you had a clue though.
April 26, 2020 at 01:50
Imagine asking someone to think historically while literally not knowing what neoliberalism is.
April 26, 2020 at 01:43
Can you imagine, this is supposed to be the 'sensible' position? Fantasy gone wild - suicidal.
April 26, 2020 at 00:52
Fascists often offer 'stability and competence' which for the most part probably accounts for a great deal of their strategic allure and political suc...
April 25, 2020 at 18:05
Probably.
April 25, 2020 at 10:19
'The will' is a grammatical mistake. A modal verb mistaken for a substantive and pretending to be of any philosophical interest at all. The less it is...

April 24, 2020 at 18:17
To be fair, anyone who holds Trump to any standard at all hasn't been paying attention.
April 24, 2020 at 17:20
I think the best thing about Trump is that he's like a sieve for stupidity - you can watch people out their retardation in real time while trying to d...
April 24, 2020 at 17:06
It's just his programming he can't help it.
April 24, 2020 at 16:57
Oh look there's one now lmao

Which interview was this from? /s
April 24, 2020 at 08:47
@"baden", @"javra" Some elaboration, via the philosopher John Protvei, on the stakes of thinking about emotion as an impersonal, social entity: (Prote...
April 24, 2020 at 08:45
Yeah, one of the things that follows very clearly from this account is what might be called the socaility of emotion. If emotion is a matter of bodily...
April 24, 2020 at 08:31
I actually agree with this in full. In fact, perhaps the thing that most powerfully interests me in Barrett's account of emotion is that it leaves ope...
April 24, 2020 at 05:22
I don't see why this is some kind of either-or. Anyone can see the almost the entirity of the US ruling class - from Cuomo who closed schools way, way...

Ah, apologies if my OP gave off that impression, which, on review, probably does. Was trying to condense alot of info into a few short paragraphs and ...
April 23, 2020 at 14:25
It's not an assumption, it's the basis of the account being given. Again this is pretty basic stuff - I no longer think it wise to take you seriously ...

Huh? This is exactly what the paper argues against?? This is the 2nd time you've made an objection based on something the paper directly disavows. Tha...
